Very cool campground. Nice interpretive center, plenty of good hiking with great views. Camping options for all interests, whether coming with a boat, car, tent, horses, or want to stay in a tipi! The campground has a lot of history relating to the Sioux Uprising from the 1860's. There is a historic site relating to that, and many signs explaining some of the history.

There's a richness to this place. Wonderful campground as well. Quiet, fairly separate campsites at a campground that is fairly distant from the Twin Cities and distraction.
